The laser scanning confocal imaging has wide application in the field of biological medicine, and has various realization forms, wherein the point scanning confocal imaging mainly adopts a galvanometer or a rotary polygon mirror to scan and operate a laser beam, so that the laser beam performs point-by-point and line-by-line scanning movement on a sample, an optical signal on the sample is recorded in real time by adopting a photoelectric detector, and a two-dimensional or three-dimensional image of the sample can be obtained through digital image reconstruction.
MEMS is an English abbreviation of Micro-Electro-Mechanical System system, and a scanning galvanometer designed and manufactured by adopting MEMS technology, namely the MEMS galvanometer, has the characteristics of small volume, light weight and the like, and is suitable for being used as a handheld optical imaging inspection device.
However, the disadvantages of the MEMS galvanometer are also obvious, and when the optical imaging inspection device scans the light beam by using the MEMS galvanometer, the obtained confocal image has more obvious complex two-dimensional scanning distortion, and the vibration characteristics of different MEMS galvanometers are different, namely, the image distortion caused by each MEMS galvanometer is different.
In the prior art, the following problems exist in the whole confocal microscope measurement and correction of image distortion: on the one hand, the whole machine image distortion testing process is complex and difficult, and the image distortion measurement is greatly influenced by subjective factors such as the capability of an operator. On the other hand, after the MEMS galvanometer type skin confocal microscope is sold to an end user, the scanning galvanometer is a wearing part, the galvanometer needs to be replaced under the conditions of abrasion and the like on the surface of the galvanometer, the user mainly is a hospital, after the galvanometer is replaced on site in the hospital, the image distortion of the whole machine needs to be measured, a distortion correction model is regenerated according to the distortion measurement condition so as to correct the image distortion, and because the image distortion measurement condition is often lacking on site in the hospital, the instrument may need to be returned to a factory for maintenance, so that the after-sales support cost of the instrument equipment is greatly increased.

According to the technical scheme, the method comprises the steps of firstly manufacturing a set of two-dimensional MEMS scanning galvanometer distortion testing device, measuring distortion characteristic images of all two-dimensional MEMS scanning galvanometers in a production batch in advance, associating the distortion characteristic images with corresponding two-dimensional MEMS galvanometers, further, when the MEMS galvanometer type skin confocal microscope is assembled and regulated, directly measuring distortion images of the whole confocal microscope is not needed, only the distortion characteristic images corresponding to the two-dimensional MEMS scanning galvanometers which are measured in advance and recorded and stored are called out, and the distortion characteristic images are multiplied by optical zoom multiples of an optical system composed of a relay lens and an objective lens in the confocal microscope to obtain distortion images of the whole confocal microscope, and on the basis, an image distortion correction model is produced, and correction of distortion images is achieved through pixel shifting of the distortion images. The whole machine image distortion testing process is simple, and the image distortion measurement is greatly reduced by subjective factors such as the capability of operators.
The method can realize the pre-distortion characteristic image test of all two-dimensional MEMS vibrating mirrors used in the production batch, on one hand, the unqualified two-dimensional MEMS vibrating mirrors with serious out-of-standard distortion can be checked, the unqualified two-dimensional MEMS vibrating mirrors are prevented from flowing into the subsequent production assembly, unnecessary man-hour waste is caused, on the other hand, the MEMS vibrating mirrors and the corresponding distortion characteristic images can be associated together for management, for example, the MEMS vibrating mirrors are marked with a serial number, the serial number corresponds to a specific distortion characteristic image, when the assembly and the debugging of the MEMS vibrating mirror type skin confocal microscope are completed, the distortion characteristic image corresponding to the adopted MEMS vibrating mirrors is called, the image distortion of the whole confocal microscope can be calculated through simple mathematical operation, the image distortion correction model is regenerated to realize the correction of distortion, more importantly, when the two-dimensional MEMS scanning vibrating mirrors are damaged and need to be replaced, only a new two-dimensional MEMS scanning vibrating mirror is installed on site, and then the original stored vibrating mirror distortion characteristic image of the system is replaced by the characteristic image file of the new vibrating mirror, so that the image distortion correction of the confocal microscope can be realized rapidly, and the after-sales equipment cost of the confocal microscope can be greatly reduced.
